| I installed the free version on my DNN3.2.2 site. Very nice. Really like it. So I bought 2.0 and: - copied over the newer snapsis.pageblaster.config file overtop the old one
- went to login to my site and got a server error (I'm guessing because my web.config had a reference to the control before I loaded the DNN module and thereby copied over new .dlls)
So I deleted the httpmodule section of my web.config and it worked fine. I then uploaded the module and went back and re-inserted the section into my web.config but I'm still getting a server error. Could it be the server error from the first time was cached by your module and so now I'm getting it? I get on more than the homepage. I've taken the section out of the web.config and have deleted all the bin files and the pageblaster.config file and will try all over again. | | | |

| Hi Ryno, thanks for purchasing.
Anytime you think there may be an old cache file you can hold CTRL & refresh.
I'm not sure why you would be getting a server error after you fixed the other problem.
If you re-install you should be fine & good to go though. Let me know if you still have problems. | | | |

| | Is there a way to delete all the cached pages at once? I imagine going into the module settings and setting the interval at 0 will do this? | | | |

| So I deleted all the files (except the module definition is still in DNN from when I uploaded it). I started over. I put the pageblaster.config back in the root directory. I then went to my page and clicked to login. The login screen was taking forever to load so I tried the CTRL refresh on that page and it came up. I put in my host name and tried to login. Same thing. Then going to the module definitions page took forever. I'm still trying to get the "upload new module" page to come up. Not sure this has anything to do with my previous botched attempt to upgrade your module...I wouldn't think it would since there is nothing in the web.config at this point.
Still trying. | | | |

| To remove all the cache files, you can delete directly from the cache folder that is specified in the root Snapsis.PageBlaster.config Deleting cache files from the module is on my list of enhancements though. The cache time for the built in module settings in dotnetnuke should always be zero, it is not used in the page caching, only the PageBlaster configuration settings should be used for cache intervals. | | | |

| Ok, glad you got it working. The slowness you were experiencing is because DNN is really slow to start these days, but the DNN 4.4 version will help a lot with that. | | | |

| After the re-installation of the module I went to the page where I had previously put the DNN module on (viewable by admin only). The page came up. I then put the section back into the web.config in the first slot for the HttpModule section (even before the DNN URL rewriter). I loaded up my website and I got a server error again. I took it out of the web.config, checked my log and found the following error description(s):
Message: System.Exception: Unhandled Error: ---> System.MissingMethodException: ? at Snapsis.DNN.PageBlaster.DNNFilterProvider.ReplaceUserInfo(String sourceText) at Snapsis.DNN.PageBlaster.DNNFilterProvider.ReplaceDNNInfo(String sourceText) at Snapsis.DNN.PageBlaster.DNNFilterProvider.Write(String inputHtml) at Snapsis.HttpModules.PageBlaster.PageReplacementsFilter.Write(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 count) at System.Web.HttpWriter.Filter(Boolean finalFiltering) at System.Web.HttpResponse.FilterOutput() at System.Web.CallFilterExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication+IExecutionStep.Execute() at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

| | The site was good to go in the sense that it stopped being so incredibly sluggish. Still having a tough time with your upgrade. Sorry :) | | | |

| That's Ok. Thanks for your patience.
What version of DNN is this? A missing method in ReplaceUserInfo is strange.
If you want, you can contact me on IM. j7mitch@hotmail.com | | | |

| | Do I perhaps need to configure the DNN module in some way before putting the section in the web.config? | | | |

| I'll get 3.2.2 loaded up and test, I didn't test that far back yet, so maybe it is missing the UserInfo method I am using. | | | |

| | Got ya. The snowcovered ad doesn't say anything about particular versions. Just has the tags for DNN3 and DNN4 and I figured if the free version worked...what the hey. Thanks for the work. | | | |

| | Right, I've been working with DNN 3.3, but I really expected that it work in all DNN 3.x but it looks like DNN got me one that one. I should have a fix very soon. | | | |

| | Some comments on the 1.4 version (not sure if this is already discussed). Some of the linkbuttons don't seem to work with the compression on. Particularly the update button in the module settings (at least in Firefox). In IE7 I get all kind of odd what seem like chain postbacks. I don't know. I have a DocType of XHTML 1.0 I use. Not enough time to check out the functionality and it's late so I'll pick this all up later. Good luck! | | | |

| Hi Ryno,
As it turns out, the major changes that were done in DNN 3.3 with User management keeps me from being able to support versions before DNN 3.3
I could give you a version that works in DNN 3.2.2 if you want, but it would limit the ability to cache by user and user role, and some of the replacements for user information would be different.
My best advice would be to upgrade your DNN site, there were several security issues found that have been corrected since that version, and now the security issues are public information.
I don't think the Doctype would make a difference in the linkbuttons working because of PageBlaster, but I'll see if I can replicate that error.

| I'm really intersted in just having it compress and cache and being able to specify which DNN pages not to compress or cache. I don't need options based on user or role. As long as it's cached for unauthenteciated users and not cached for registered users that works for me. Would like to specify which pages get cached and which don't though.
Upgrading isn't an option for me at this time. Got a bunch of custom modules and I just don't have the time. Besides I just got done upgrading from 2.1.2 about a year ago and that was a major pain. | | | |

Ok, that's understandable. Reply to the notification e-mail from this post directly, and I'll e-mail you a DLL that will work on version 3.2.2 without the user functionality. | | | |
